I found out my problem. I didn't install GRUB via the Fedora install, which I found out how to do correctly now.  I'm gonna have the bootloader put on sector 1 of the USB drive, then copy it out and put it as a file on the C: drive.

Yes, my BIOS does support booting from a USB device.

My only problem now is that whenever I go to re-install Fedora, the installation freezes while the files are being copied.
I'll get this thing working yet! (Smilie)

(I'm using steps similar to those in the first link above)
I'd just recommend you to installed the bootlader as root or MBR... 8-) While installing Fedora that is. :)
